14" off road tires


does anyone use 14" off road tires
the biggest I could find were 195/80r14 with a luggy tread
14" wide wheels eem to be heaps more common for beetles

Yes i used to , although i believe theyare quite hard to find now.
On the front of my old manx i had Bridstone Desert Duelers ,which are possible not made any more but are possibley copied by a cheap jap tyre , but sorry i cannot think of the name or brand.
But in saying that there is a pair for sale on Dunebuggy and Baja Adventures as we speak or just do a seaerch through the different tyre companies.
The other option you have is to look under rally tyres , but be prepared for a costley tyre

I used to run BFG all terrain 27X8.50R14LT on the front, you can still get those.

I used to run Goodyear all terrains before that, but they don't make those anymore.

The tyres on the front of my baja are 14". They are super trippers. not a great brand but the tread pattern is identical to desert deulers. And no you cannot get 14" desert deulers anymore. I tried.
